Petitgrain (Italy)

(Citrus aurantium bigaradia-Rutaceae)

This essential oil is distilled from the leaves and young twigs of the bitter orange tree. It has a fresh, floral and sweet smell, reminiscent of Neroli, which is made from the flower of the same tree. The better the quality, the closer the aroma is to Neroli. Petitgrain is less expensive than Neroli with almost the same benefits.
